If P = He is a carpenter and q = He is making a table.
Then write down the following statement into symbols :
He is a carpenter or making a table.

Answer

To convert the statement "He is a carpenter or making a table" into symbols using the given definitions, we can follow these steps:

1. **Identify the Statements**:
- Let \( P \) represent "He is a carpenter".
- Let \( Q \) represent "He is making a table".

2. **Understand the Logical Connective**:
- The word "or" in logical terms is represented by the symbol \( \lor \) (disjunction).

3. **Construct the Symbolic Statement**:
- Since the statement is "He is a carpenter or making a table", we can express this in symbols as:
\[ P \lor Q \]

Thus, the final symbolic representation of the statement "He is a carpenter or making a table" is \( P \lor Q \).
